Chapter 175 Don’t Worry, No One in the Magic World Knows How to Lift the Curse Better than You!
The smile on Lockhart's lips stopped. He was not an evil dark wizard, but he was indeed a liar.
"You must be joking, right?" Lockhart said with a stern expression.
"Of course not! Professor Dumbledore even gave our Gryffindor house a hundred points for this." Colin said with admiration.
Harry's defeat of the mysterious man was great, but little wizards like them had no idea who the mysterious man was and how terrifying he was.
In comparison, riding a dragon, defeating trolls, and killing an evil dark wizard disguised as a professor would be closer to the fantasy of a normal little wizard.
Lockhart was a little panicked. He never knew that the last Defense Against the Dark Arts professor died tragically accidentally or at the hands of two young wizards.
While this made Lockhart feel absurd, he couldn't help but look at the two instigators.
"Most of this is due to Harry." Seeing Lockhart look over, Ivan said without hesitation.
"He cast a spell with his hands, and then Professor Kino's face peeled off piece by piece like butter burned by an iron."
Ivan deliberately said it in an extremely terrifying way, specifically describing how Kino's burned and pitted face disintegrated into pieces.
"Professor Kino was obviously still alive at that time, but it was Ivan who used the Crushing Curse to blow up Professor Kino into a pile of powder!" Harry said very dissatisfied.
"Maybe," Ivan shrugged without refuting, then looked at Lockhart, whose expression became increasingly weird, and said.
"Actually, even without us, Professor Kino would be unlucky for various reasons. I heard from senior students that this position has been cursed. No Defense Against the Dark Arts professor has ever been able to be stable at Hogwarts. Stay for a full year!”
The more Ivan talked, Lockhart's face turned green. He thought that coming to Hogwarts to be a professor would be a good thing with gold and fame, but he didn't expect it to be so dangerous.
"This year is definitely an exception. How could Professor Lockhart be stumped by a small curse?" Hermione couldn't help but said.
Hermione had also heard such rumors from senior students, but she had always scorned them, not to mention that Professor Lockhart had solved countless troubles and would never fall for a curse.
"Are you right? Professor Lockhart!" Hermione turned around and asked a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, but was surprised to find that the other person had disappeared.
"Where's the professor?" Hermione asked strangely.
"I saw him heading towards the principal's office." Ivan pointed to the corridor on the other side and could vaguely see Lockhart's back.
Hermione was dumbfounded and couldn't speak for a long time.
Ivan and Harry looked at each other, with a smile on their lips. They believed that Lockhart would not easily harass them again in the future.
Ivan even wondered whether Lockhart would voluntarily resign because of this, and who would be the next Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
However, Lockhart calmed down, and it was more difficult for Colin. This guy was following behind them like a follower, trying to take pictures of them.
Ivan had to secretly release a little magic while Colin was not paying attention, blocking the lens of the camera, so that Colin thought there was something wrong with his camera.
"Isn't this bad?" Harry looked at a little kid who was about to cry and said worriedly.
"Don't worry, the magic will disappear automatically after a few hours." Ivan explained. Although he was troubled by Colin's enthusiasm, he would not really damage the other person's things.
Ron quietly fell behind him at this time. He was very curious about a question. His two friends are so famous, what about him?
"Colin, have you heard of me when you were at home?" Ron asked curiously.
Colin, who was holding the camera depressedly, looked at Ron blankly for a while.
Who are you?
At the same time, Lockhart hurried to the principal's office, and after giving the password, he successfully met Dumbledore, who was looking through books.
The old principal slowly stopped what he was doing, put his ten long knuckles together, and said in a friendly tone.
"Professor Lockhart, your first lesson is less than ten minutes away. Do you come to me with something important?"
Lockhart, who was threatened by Ivan, was completely in no mood for class at this time, and he spoke hurriedly.
"President Dumbledore, before you took this position, you never told me that the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts was cursed and that it was so dangerous. I even heard that the previous professor died on his own. "at the post"
Lockhart was really panicking. He wondered if he had offended Dumbledore somewhere, and hesitated whether to find an opportunity to run away.
"Professor Lockhart" Dumbledore had to interrupt Lockhart to prevent him from continuing.
"The so-called curses are just rumors. I can tell you clearly that most wizards who hold this position are alive and well. Kino's last school year was just an accident."
What about the remaining few?
Lockhart really wanted to ask, but Dumbledore didn't give him the chance. The centenarian pointed to the page in his hand and said meaningfully.
"And, if I remember correctly, you mentioned in your autobiography "Breaking with the Female Ghost" that no one in the entire magical world knows how to break a curse better than you!"
Only then did Lockhart clearly see that the book on the table was one of his autobiographies - "Breaking with the Ghost."
On the page that Dumbledore opened, there was a dynamic picture of himself on it with a refreshing smile on his face, repeating that sentence over and over again - No one in the wizarding world knows how to solve the problem better than me. A curse!
"Ah~ yes, it seems like that!" Lockhart wanted to defend himself awkwardly, but Dumbledore's blue eyes under his half-moon glasses were staring at him closely, making him feel like he had been seen through. Feel.
Lockhart felt uncomfortable for a while, so he swallowed the words that came to his mouth and quickly expressed that a small curse was nothing to him.
Dumbledore's tone became more relaxed and he comforted Lockhart. In fact, it was very safe to work in Hogwarts. He usually just taught and went to class.
Not dangerous at all
After Lockhart left, Dumbledore sighed helplessly, thinking about who should replace Lockhart next year.
I have to say that there are really fewer and fewer suitable candidates.
